At The Close Or Closing Price

Definition of At The Close Or Closing Price

At the close or closing price is the last traded price of securities like stocks, ETFs, and others at the end of regular market hours.

For example, if a stock hit Rs. 4,500 at 3.30 PM (market close), then that is its price at the close also known as the closing price.

Unlike Adjusted Closing Price, at the close or closing price does not take into account price changes due to corporate actions.

Forward Price

The forward price is the final value at which a forward contract is exercised, that is, delivered to the buyer by the seller. It is different from the spot price of the underlying asset as it includes the cost of carry like interest rates, storage cost, and other carrying charges. The formula to calculate forward price is:

Forward price: Spot Price − Cost of Carry (storage costs, interest rate, etc)

Bear Market

A bear market is a period of continuous decline in the stock or commodity market.

Typically, investors believe that a bear market has arrived when a stock, commodity, or entire index fall by 20% or more from its most recent highs.

The onset of a bear market is generally in tandem with poor economic conditions.

Hard Underwriting

A hard underwriting occurs when the underwriter agrees to buy their share of stock before the IPO opens. This is known as hard underwriting because in a regular underwriting process, the underwriter is liable to buy all unsold shares after the issue opens.

Debentures

A debenture is a legal certificate that a company issues in exchange for a long-term unsecured loan. A debt instrument like a debenture is issued by companies who want to fund their business without diluting existing shares.

The components of a debenture are as follows:

  • Principal: The loan amount or the money lent by an investor
  • Tenure: The duration of the loan
  • Interest rate: The rate of interest
  • Repayment: Terms and conditions of the amount to be repaid

Debenetures can also be issued by small-size companies who may not be creditworthy enough to secure a loan from traditional lenders. Hence, the unsecured aspect of the loan may help achieve their objective.

CANSLIM

CANSLIM is an acronym for a seven-step strategy to pick growth stocks by combining fundamental and technical analysis. Here’s the full form of CANSLIM:

  • Current quarterly Earnings Per Share (EPS): compare this fundamental indicator with the same figure from the previous quarter. If the figure grows (by 20% or more as a rule of thumb), the company is fundamentally strong.

  • Annual earnings: Compare this fundamental indicator from the previous years. If there’s year-on-year growth, the company is fundamentally strong. If the year-on-year growth is by 20-25%, even better.

  • New product or service: strong companies continue to innovate. That’s what this letter is about - checking if the company is continuously launching new products, services, or holding events.

  • Supply: a fundamentally strong business should have a good supply and demand when it comes to its goods, services, and stock. Executive supply of shares may reduce the value of the company - that’s why it should always be scarce in supply.

  • Leader: the company should be a leader in its own right, either in or across industries.

  • Institutional holding: a valuable company will have higher institutional ownership, the percentage of which should always be tracked.

  • Market trend: an investor must check whether the company or stock is going or against the trend by comparing it to broader indices.

Ask Or Offer Price

The ask or offer price is the price at which an investor is willing to sell a security like stocks, bonds, currencies, ETFs, and others.
